I saw an ancient painting of the Ming Dynasty "Guan Yu's Capture of the General", which is now in the Palace Museum in Beijing. It describes the story of Guan Yu flooding the Seventh Army and capturing Pang De alive in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". The attendant on Guan Yu's right is Zhou Cang, who holds the Qinglong Yanyue Sword for Guan Yu, and the person holding the sword on the left is Guan Yu's righteous son Guan Ping. Pound was tied with two arms by the reverse scissors, his fists clenched, his teeth gritted, and his angry and unwilling expression was vividly expressed.
Pang De was a famous general in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, a native of Nan'an Dao, which is now a native of Wushan County, Tianshui City, Gansu Province. After Cao Cao's battle of Guandu broke Yuan Shao, he coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and sent troops to fight against Yuan Shao's sons Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang in the seventh year of Jian'an (202). Yuan Shang sent Guo Yuan, Gan and others to take Hedong, and Pang De followed Ma Chao as the vanguard, resisted in Pingyang, won a complete victory, and personally beheaded Guo Yuan. became famous in the first war, was worshiped as a Zhonglang general, and was crowned the Marquis of the Pavilion.
In the twentieth year of Jian'an (215), Cao Cao pacified Hanzhong, Pang De surrendered with the crowd, was named Liyi General, and closed the door to the Pavilion. and Guan Yu's Hanshou Pavilion Marquis should be at the same level.
In the twenty-third year of Jian'an (218), Pang De was stationed in Fancheng with the ban and attacked Guan Yu. At this time, Guan Yu, as Liu Bei's premier general, is as famous as the sky, although he is 59 years old, but his force is not reduced, in this battle, Pang De has fought Guan Yu twice, both are intractable, and he injured Guan Yu with a cold arrow, which can be said to be famous. Pang De often rides on a white horse, and Guan Yujun is known as the white horse general, and Guan Yu is also afraid of him.
Later, Yu Ban led 30,000 horses to rescue Fancheng, and the guard Cao Ren let Yu Ban and Pang De camp in a place ten miles north of Fancheng. It was August, it rained heavily for more than ten days, the Han River overflowed, Guan Yu took the opportunity to attack, flooded the Seventh Army, Pang De failed to break through, was captured by Guan Yu, stood without kneeling, resolutely did not fall, and was finally killed by Guan Yu.
In fact, at that time, Guan Yu wanted to persuade Pang De to surrender. After all, Pang De's old master Ma Chao is in Liu Bei's camp, and Pang De's brother Pang Rou is also in Liu Bei's camp, Pang De's surrender to Guan Yu is a logical thing! But Pang De refused to surrender, and insulted Guan Yu and Liu Bei, and was finally killed by Guan Yu!
In the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", it is recorded that Yu Wei said: "Brother Qing is in Hanzhong, I want to take Qing as a general, what is it if I don't surrender early?" De scolded Yu and said: "Vertical son, what is the meaning of surrendering! The King of Wei brought a million armor and shook the world. How can you be a ghost of the country than a thief and a general. So he was killed by Yu.
"The Battle of Xiangfan" is the most shining period of Guan Yu's life, this battle shocked China, flooded the Seventh Army, and the limelight was unique. Cao Cao had the idea of moving the capital because of this, and Sun Quan, who was far away in Jiangdong, felt deeply uneasy.
In the painting, Guan Yu is in a blue scarf and green robe, with a red face and phoenix eyes, long hair fluttering, and sitting in a precarious position. Zhou Cangguan stood on both sides. It is believed that Guan Yuzhi was complacent at this time, and he did not expect to be defeated in Maicheng in less than a few months, and he died. I can't even think of killing Pound and planting disasters for future generations.
"Shu Ji": Pang Dezihui, Sui Zhong, Deng Hua Shu, Shu Po, and wiped out the Guan family.
